About: I have had animals my whole life. I have experience with dogs primarily, but I have experience with fish, Guinea pigs, cats, and birds! Any time friends/family leave town, I’m the one they call. Always open to questions☺️ I currently have my kitty Sol in my home, but I always take care of my 2 pups on the weekend, and I took care of them everyday when I was a kid! Dogs are my Bestfriend☺️ I have special treats and food I feed to each of my dogs, as they are different ages and breeds. I try to stay on top of new diets I see online, and vet check them beforehand. I have always followed the rule: leave the area nicer when you found it, so if the dog has an accident, no problem!

About: I have owned dogs since 2007. I also grew up with dogs. I currently have 3 dogs (and 2 parrots). I have 1 golden retriever and 1 Newfoundland. Monday through Thursday I can help early in the morning (up to 630 am) and I can help after 5pm. And I am available Friday night through the weekend. I have a back yard to my home if you need my help for a period of time. I come home from work to let the dogs out over lunch. I run with my youngest dog, and walk the other (as she is too big to run, or 10 years old).

About: I am dipping my paw into the world of dog walking as a way to fulfill my passion for pets and a means of making a little pocket money. I have had dogs most of my life, cats sometimes too. As a child and teenager, I showed and handled dogs with my mom and sister. As an adult, I have almost always had at least one dog. As I write this, my husband and I have three dogs of our own. Tsi-Tsi who came to us when my mom lost her battle with cancer. Tilly is our young, beautiful and intense whippet, and in May of 2024, we adopted our rescue while on vacation in Hawaii - the gregarious and sweeter than we could ever have expected, Triena. I am a local working artist. I work from my home studio with a relatively flexible schedule. I reserve most Thursdays and weekends to spend time focused on community and family. However in a pinch I will do my best to accommodate your schedule on a case by case basis. I will come to your home and visit with your pets. I can take them out for some exercise or play and check water and food supplies. Your furry friends will be cared for like they are my own.


About: Hi there, I'm Nichole, and the dog in my profile picture is Chance! She was my best bud for 12 years so senior doggos are my heart! She helped me be familiar with giving oral medication and needing lots of naps and low-key play times! Besides Chance, I’ve had dogs whose ages range from 5 months to 10 years of age, and a variety of different breeds and sizes! I am comfortable with tug of war, playing fetch, or a good snuggle and belly rub. Currently we have two kitties and a doggo that just turned a year and an half (we’re working on behavioral needs with her so I’m very patient!) Are walks your furry best friend's favorite thing to do? Just leave me a note or give me instructions (if needed) in case they are really energetic or have a bigger than life personality so I know what they need. I can of course send pics of your best friend enjoying themselves on our walk, play time or even if they’re snoozing or chowing down on a meal. Do not hesitate to check in either asking how they are! It is my priority to be here while you’re away and to help you feel comfortable with their care even if I am just doing a check in. I know that their mom or dad is the best, but it’s my hope to help them not miss you as much while you're gone so I will make it a fun time for them and love them and care for them like they were my own. ***Please note that as of September I will be back to being a full time teacher assistant meaning my availability will be limited to nights and weekends even for drop ins, unless on extended breaks like Christmas.*** **Please note as well unless I have already spoken to you about doing a house sitting, I am going to be no longer accepting house sitting clients just to promote better work life balance between this job and spending time with my family.** As far as how pet care fits into my daily routine,I would be available to walk or do check ins any time after 1 pm Monday-Thursday. ****Fridays I could do anytime after 7 am as I need to get my morning started first so I can be the best me for your furbaby!**** Please note that once fall approaches (in Sept) my schedule will be changing once more so I appreciate your cooperation! I will care for your pets as if they were family. I will be as hands off or hands on as needed depending on what they like or need. :) I also do have my husband come with me to all meet and greets due to safety reasons. He will not come to the walking or drop ins when being done.

I have one senior dog of my own named moose, he's a chocolate Lab mix, and one German Shepherd named Phoebe. Plenty of walking experience, medication experience, and lots of love for dogs. I used to watch animals for neighbors, feeding them, walks, and play time. I am currently working Full time, however with it being Summer I have more free-time on my hands. I love animals of all kinds, and being outside is wonderful. I think this is a great opportunity to make some new furry friends as well as save up. I take my dogs out for walks as much as I can, they love swimming and going to the beach. So I could definitely do that with your dogs. As well play with them (fetch, tug o' war, etc).

Caroline K.
“Caroline has been a fabulous provider of pet care. I know that when I leave town my dog is taken care of by the best. She provides updates and information while I am gone to keep me informed about my dog. You can easily tell she really loves animals and will take care of them no matter what. My dog always seems excited about seeing her and spending time with her. I strongly urge everyone to use Caroline as a pet sitter as she will care for your animal as if it was her own.”


Carmen K.
“Carmen is a very loving and responsible pet owner. We’ve had many dogs in our lifetime, ranging from under 15 to over 100lbs. She has been a patient mom to many breeds, including more challenging but lovable selective listeners (aka huskies). Some weeks, she’ll walk the dogs 3x per day, for about 30 min each, weather and dog energy permitting. Carmen also has experience feeding, cleaning up and talking/singing to our family’s small animals, such as cockatiels, fish, hamsters and guinea pigs. Her passion for animals extends beyond our family as she previously volunteered at the Racine Zoo with Kangaroos and making meatballs for the Tigers. Highly recommend you get in touch with Carmen if you need regular walks for your pooches, or even a drop in to check on your small animals as needed.”

Samira G.
“Samira is so great with animals! When I got a rescue dog -- neglected, scared of everything & everyone -- she didn't even bark the first time Samira came to the house. And went right up to her. She has had multiple dogs of her own, and has years of experience with care/feeding/understanding of animals. Her conduct is professional and caring, and I would never worry, knowing my pup was in good hands. Highly recommended.”




Nichole B.
“Nichole has been around pets most of her life. She has a deep concern for them and their needs. Nichole will dedicate 100% of herself while your pet/s are in her care. I know without a doubt if I needed to leave my dog with Nichole, he would be well cared for.”

Dylan C.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Dylan provided for my dog Pete. From the moment we met, it was clear that he genuinely loves and understands animals.

I’ll definitely be using him again.”


Sheena P.
“Sheena has been a life saver for us and our three dogs. She keeps a consistent schedule and always shows up when she says she will. Sheena helped us feel confident to leave our dogs because she would provide updates during the day and evening by sending us pictures and videos of our dogs. Sheena really cares about our dogs’ stimulation and making sure they are comfortable at all time. She adheres to difficult feeding instructions and food regiments and even at times was willing to pick up pet supplies for us when we ran out. Sheena is a trustworthy, reliable, and caring individual who would make a great dog sitter.”
